Orders were sent for them nearly a year ago but, although the plows were ship- ped out in good time, they still | have not reached Alaska. Instead, guess. where they are! They are reposing under thatched roofs in the tropical heat of one of the Mariana Islands.

For more than two years, the Greeks were told by U. S. diplomats that the British views were our views. For instance, when the Greek Cabinet ~at Cairo, in the autumn” of 1943, « reguested King George of Greece i nét to retwrn until a plebiscite had { been held, this column reported (on Octcher 28, 1943) that U. S. Am- bassador Alexander Kirk urged the ! QGreek Cabinet to support the King. It is hard to reverse a policy wouernight and make the Greeks i understood it. Unquestionably they ' Hold us almost as responsible for . the rioting and bloodshed in the ! streets of Athens as they hold the ! British. +NOTE—On August 19, 1944, this feolumn quoted Greek Guerrilla '?remier Svolos as saying: “If an ,Agglm!\mencan Army comes in i with the idea of keeping any part ,of Greece, we will fight against you| ras we never fought against the ! Germans. We fought the Turks in the mountains of Greece for 500 Lyears, against you.” { MOVIE STARS IN POLITICS, The activity of Orson Welles, | Frank Sinatra, Ann Sheridan and ta lot of other movie and radio . stars in the recent campaign has caused repercussions among .movie-going public. One irate movie-goer recently wrote to Harry fWarner of Warner Brothers, de- ymanding that movie stars be sup- 'pressed when it came to expressmL thenr political opinions. To this Harry Warner replied: | “Dear Madam: In reply to letter of the 8th, I am very much surprised that anyone would refuse to go to see a picture because the :uur in it had publicly expressed this political point of view . {fitting in any Nazi or icountry, but thank God Japanese there is and we will do the same| the | your | “? think your letter would be| the type these ships were muymg —the Saipan battle was in progress at that time.
